My initial reaction was if all students saw just how much work actually went into making their pencils maybe they'd treat them better, and I wonder if people realize how much science and math and engineering went into designing such a simple tool!
Fascinating to watch how 2.3 billion pencils per year are produced. And a great reminder that "robots" have been automating jobs for centuries. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aPb-slJH9Vs …

With 2.3 billion produced each year one might wonder why my students don’t have any for class.
